Re: Tyrone Appleton MBB Recruiting Note

Thanks for the update Chris - that's too bad. Hopefully we can convince him that KU is flooded with talent and he'll have to really find a way to crack the lineup, where he can come in and be a part of the rotation immediately at ISU... we'll see I guess.

Problem is Kansas won't be flooded with talent at the gaurd spot next year.

Yeah, but is KU going to play these guys every minute of every game next year. I'm just saying that KU has playing time next year. Plus, you never know if injuries will occur (Collins this year) and I don't think KU will settle with having lack of depth.

The difference is that KU is looking for depth, but ISU is looking for a starter.

Re: Tyrone Appleton MBB Recruiting Note

Why would he honestly be interested in Kansas? They already have a Juco swingman coming in in Little, Releford at the SG spot, and Collins will for sure get most of the minutes at the PG spot. With Chalmers, Reed, and Teahan in there as well there really won't be a whole lot of minutes available to him.

I agree, but put yourself in his shoes. He's one of the top JUCO prospects in the country and arguably the best team in the country wants you to play for them.

Let's be honest. Bill Self isn't telling Tyrone "you'll be one of our top reserves." That's not how recruiting works.

It's up to Appleton and his family to do enough research and figure out where he'll sit on the KU pecking order.
